I am usually not that critical of hotels but I have to say this was really a dog of a hotel -- unless you are in your twentys and want a cheap place to stay for a Beach Hotel. Small rooms, sheets on the bead that you can see through -- everything was basically the cheapest possible.
Location is not horrible -- 5 minutes to beach, 10 minutes to town, 2 minutes to bus stop but I mad the mistake of trying to cut cost on a trip and not researching hotels on this sight (my mistake) and stayed at a bad hotel.

Indeed the location is not as bad as the first glance seems.
Two minutes to the beach. Ten minutes to town.
But... it's next to a busy driven, noisy street.

Style is oldffashioned. Rooms are dark but with kitchenette.
The staff at the reception is very kind and absolutely helpfull.

Details:
- 2 minutes walk to great beach - best location for windsurfing
- 5 - 10 minutes walk to town
- 5 - 10 minutes by bus - stop close to the hotel
- good restaurants within walking distance - on the way to old town
- pool available but not exceptional
- tough beds - no blanket just sheets
- aged showerhead and bath interior
- basic equipped kitchenette

Over all:
Nice but noisy hotel in suburbia. Nothing special. Nothing exceptional.

We were put in this hotel as part of Thomas Cook Island Hopping - and would not choose to return here. I do not believe that it merits the three star classification which Thomas Cook has given it.

This hotel is 20-25 minutes walk from the bus station which is the key to going anywhere else on the island. The walk to and from the hotel is just a chore - along a busy road with fast traffic and no/narrow pavements.
The management of the hotel is sloppy - with offered rooms being dirty, towels not replace and fixtures and fittings which do not work and which are not repaired despite requests being made.

The hotel lies on the edge of Chora, near the open air cinema, by the road leading to the airport, adjacent to a large supermarket (I am writing this because 5 different booking engines gave 5 completely different locations). If you plan to spend an evening in Chora, the problematic part is a 5 min walk on the pavement (of a very busy road) which is overgrown by some small palm trees.

The hotel looks nice on the outside, but it is a true architectural disaster. At least 1/3 of the rooms are located in the basement of the hotel. The only source of light are the doors leading nowhere. If you open these doors, you can see directly in your neighbour's room (and vice versa). If you are particulary unlucky, you can get a room where all passers by can see directly in your bathroom. I tried to change the room but I was told that the hotel is fully booked (I didn't believe that). In front of the hotel there's a small pool (only for a decorative purpose) which was empty. Since you do not have a balcony, it is impossible to dry your towels.

Otherwise, the hotel is reasonably clean. It also has a huge pool which we didn't use. The breakfasts were always the same - they offer the cheapest ham possible and the fake orange juice tastes like a cooling liquid from Chernobile. However, the yoghurt, the cheese slices, jam and margarine are OK. It was bizzare to see how some guests brought their own Nutela for the breakfast. Anyway, you can always find something to eat. The breakfast room is terribly hot. If you are lucky you can use the 4 tables on the patio outside.

Noise from the road was not a problem at all.

The staff is reasonably friendly. On the last day we had to empty our room by noon. We waited for our late afternoon ferry at the beach. The lady at the reception allowed us to take the shower and even brought some fresh towels.

It is definitely an acceptable hotel, but it certainly does not deserve 4* as advertised. Maybe 2.5*.
